With many thanks to our comrades in the TrueHoop Network, we've got the 411 on Bobby Brown and Darius Songaila, who the Hornets acquired today from the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for Antonio Daniels.
First the skinny on Brown, courtesy of Zach Harper of Cowbell Kingdom:
Outside of being the King of R&B, Bobby Brown is one of the more fun third string point guards you can have on your team. He doesn't look like much but his production on the court is actually pretty astonishing. He's lightning quick with the ball and fairly good at freeing up space to get off his jumper, which looks a little more like Shawn Marion than it does Steve Kerr. I wouldn't exactly call him a defensive wizard by any means because he often gets torched while trying to stop the ball. But his resilient demeanor helps him forget about it and continue to play with confidence on the other end.
He's a volume scorer when he's out there but does so in a peculiar way. He does a great job of knocking down shots with the clock running down. In fact, that's when he's at his best. He doesn't do a great job of distributing the ball but he also doesn't really turn it over that much, either. He's the sparkplug you want for a garbage time player- a three-point shooter with the swagger to keep the crowd interested.
